r-mean - letter to the king lyrics

verse 1:
i used to hold the remote of my mother’s tv as a mic and emulate you
rap along to everything
you was the reason i started emceeing nothing as real as
instead of homework i would study you lyrics because you would hit us with the science and physics
and rhyme so descriptive the image in the mind was so vivid
i closed my eyes and i lived it
that’s how you push the mind to its limits and making us feel
half man half amazing for real
my inspiration
i still remember the first time i heard it was written
the message, i gave you power
they ill, but your sh-t with different
illmatic was like a bible, that sh-t gave my life a mission
i was just a kid that had a vision
fast-forward, it’s nas the god’s son
the greatest of all time
helped me thru depression and the dark times
i’m saying , i used to drive drunk by myself b-mping drunk by myself
going wherever instinct takes me
and you might not know me but where i’m from i’m the one
see i’m deep in their lives
in my community they call me that armenian nas
and all i know you was my childhood hero so i’m here to salute your legacy
never dispute supremacy
dawg, that’s why i chose to reach out like this
taught us to stay true to what we be about like this
went from the projects to harvard
street profit evolved fast
peace and love god
sincerely yours, r dash…

hook:
this a letter to the king
a letter to the god
nothing for me to pen an open letter from the heart
cuz if only i reach one person how you reached my soul
then if so, i done reached my goal
so this a letter to the king
a letter to the god
nothing for me to pen an open letter from the heart
cuz if only i reach one person how you reached my soul
then if so, i done reached my goal
so this a letter to the king…

verse 2:
headphones on, would rock it for months
the way i am – rapping along off the top of my lungs
that was the anthem for every kid that’s feeling empty as vacuum
just sitting by myself in the corner, back of the cl-ssroom
hiding inside my hoodie, broken but never crack
cuz you taught me to be a f-cking soldier till i collapse
infinite from the brink of it
how this kid even think of it
i would study your patterns like how he spitting so intricate
all i wanted to be as a teen that was hurt was the meanest emcee, on the sea on this earth
you’re the king of this controversy, from shady the king mathers
all the sh-t you had to go through to get to this king status
you came in this game brutally honest offending lotta folks
but i could instantly hear the pain that’s hiding behind the jokes
to say you’ve been through it all is an understatement
but you wasn’t scared to share it with us, so we all related
from your baby mama, your daughters, your moms, to the drugs
you single-handedly broke the barriers of this culture
and i know you sacrificed a whole lot and the fame depresses you
cuz your level of fame is different dawg, they just obsessed with you
but i always say the chosen one’s supposed to struggle
and you change so many lives
that’s including mines
you know, where i’m from i’m the one
ain’t no need to pretend
in my community they call me the armenian em
and yeah i still hope that one day me and you can work
i just put that out in the universe
rap god , i’m just writing this from the heart because i came to salute your legacy
never dispute supremacy
dawg, n-body could’ve designed it better
marshall mathers , the greatest of all time forever
thank you for being the inspiration that we all need
peace and love, god
sincerely yours, r-mean…
